(Rother KI 2007) . Type 2 daibetes is charactierized by insulin resistence , a condition in which cells fail to respond to insulien properly . The defect of body tissues to respond to insulin is believed to involve the insulin receptors but the specific defects are not known . Type 2 daibetes is the most common type of diabetes mellitus .
